Together/Apart: Awake with Heart
A true celebration of Democracy, Together/Apart: Awake with Heart, featured works by composers of color and brought our singers (safely) back together for the first time since March. This virtual hybrid of live and recorded performance saw singers separated in space, but not in sound or spirit. You can still enjoy the performance in its entirety below!
